Hello, My Name is
Jessie. This is my Website.
About Me
I’m a recent graduate from Northwestern University, graduating with a
B.S. in biomedical engineering and a M.S. in computer science in four
years. I was a researcher in the Grayson Group investigating how electrical
impedance tomography (EIT) can be used as a medical imaging method,
including a novel
method for analyzing the spatial resolution of EIT alongside a data
collection and analysis technique that allowed for higher accuracy
reconstruction at 10x
the speed. I performed my master’s work in the SPICE lab developing a machine
learning model that presents exciting new possibilities for using EIT in
human-computer interaction (more details to come post-publication). I
was concurrently employed in the Pinkett Lab as a laboratory technician,
performing cell culture and molecular biology techniques. Before that, I
examined potato proteomics at Colorado State University in my hometown.
In my free time, I bike, play bass (standup and electric), write, and
make a game called At Rot.
